Just sitting up and feeling anxious. Obsessing a little. My kid was playing with the neighbor kids over the little mesh fence,tossing toys back and forth, and while the little girl was babbling, I thought I heard her say she was sick. I asked her what was wrong, but she didn't answer. I made up a lame excuse, and brought my kids inside, panicking, of course. I sanitized my 3 year old's hands immediately, the baby was nowhere near the other kids. I'm freaking out now, thinking my kid might catch a sv. She wasn't playing with them for long, but was talking to them, in pretty close proximity over the short fence.
I am trying to tell myself everything will be fine, but the phobia is taking over. I'm so tired, but the panic is keeping me awake.
I also feel like a rotten mom, for keeping my kids cooped up inside on a sunny day because of my lame phobia. I just can't win.
